Developing cultural awareness skills

Michaela Broeckx aware of cultural sensitivitiesIt is hard to imagine a modern organization completely built around a cultural singularity. Modern organizations tend to evolve around a delicate pattern of intercultural exchanges, all the more reason to make sure that all the actors within the network of a corporate environment constantly are aware of each other’s cultural sensitivities. This course is about discovering how cultural diversity is an asset rather than a problem in your company and providing participants with the necessary skills to come to terms with this discovery.
